Kids say the MOST embarrassing things...I mean the "darnedest" things.

So Andrew has this big campaign kick off for work at the Energy Solutions Arena...is that a mouthful or what? Anyhow, it was for their new free Jazz checking (it is awesome....essentially you get paid for every win that they make and as they advance through the playoffs). We were able to eat this yummy dinner and the kids got to go trick-or-treating and shoot hoops on the court. Later in the evening the adults listened to this guy talk about handling change and from what I heard it sounded good but at the very beginning the babies needed to be changed and by the time that was done I realized that it was my turn to go to the bathroom. I ended up taking Emma with me for a number of reasons. (a- the babies were not happy and Andrew couldn't hold them and chase after Emma, b- we have started potty training her and she does really good but doesn't always remember to tell us she needs to go and c- even if Andrew could handle it I wouldn't wish that on him. He had been working that whole time we were there.)
We go and I do my business (No, for those of you that know me and my numbering system I am not going to share ALL the details). We walk into to this quiet room were everyone is intently listening to the speaker and Emma shouts, "My Mommy went potty on the toilet!!!" It is an accomplishment when you are between the ages of 2-4 or over 70 but honestly I was totally embarrassed. So I just said "Yes, I did" when everyone turned to look at this amazing woman who finally learned to use the potty.
If you feel up to it leave your own funny story in the comments so that we can all get a laugh or a smile today.

This is so funny. I am sure I will be in for some of these moments soon. I was at home when this happened but still a funny story. I have said to Emma when she toots, "Emma are you poopy?" So one day I let out a toot and she gets this big face and says, "Mommy poopy!" I was laughing so hard.

That is too funny " ) I got an email not too long ago about a mom that had her 3 or 4 year old son in the stall with her and he kept up a very loud commentary. Saying things like "mom are you poopin?" "eww mom that stinks, you pooped" etc. The mom was so emmbarassed and figured she could get out without too much an audience, but when she came out there were about 10 or more people in there silently listening and laughing " )
Emma should be proud " ) So funny ha ha!
